An island, lying off the coast Of
New Zealand, in the South Pacific
Ocean, is peculiarly situated, as 1t is
one Of the few habitable points Of
the globe where the day Of the week
changes. It is just on the line of
demsrcation between dates. There,
at high l2, or noon, on Sunday, Sun
day ceases, and instantly Monday
meridian begins. Sunday comes in
to a mans house on the east side,
and becomes Monday by the time it
passes out of the western door. A
man sits down to his noon day din
ner on Sunday, and it is Monday
noon before he finishes it.
